November 2019 Startup Funding
By Jeff Dorsch - 05 Dec, 2019 - Comments: 0

During November, 16 tech startups raised private funding rounds of $100 million or more, together receiving $3.42 billion. Investors were drawn to many of the same technology fields that were popular in 2019 — automotive and mobility tech, artificial intelligence and machine learning, cybersecurity, platforms, semiconductors, and software. Analytics of multiple different types were big in ... » read more

Getting To Orbit And The Rocket Equation
By Paul McLellan - 05 Dec, 2019 - Comments: 0

The Apollo 12 mission recently celebrated its 50th anniversary. Launching on November 14, 1969 and returning on November 24, it put humans on the Moon for the second time. I wrote about Apollo 11 (mostly about its guidance computer) earlier in the year in my post The First Computer on the Moon. Today's post is about the rocket equation, and how challenging it is to get into orbit around th... » read more

Eight Benefits Of Using An FPGA With An On-Chip High-Speed Network
By Achronix - 04 Dec, 2019 - Comments: 0

Since the initial introduction of FPGAs decades ago, each new architecture has continued to employ a bit-wise routing structure. While this approach has been successful, the rise of high-speed communication standards has required ever increasing on-chip bus widths to be able to support these new data rates. A consequence of this limitation is that designers often spend much of their development... » read more

Fixed and Floating FMCW Radar Signal Processing with Tensilica DSPs
By Cadence - 04 Dec, 2019 - Comments: 0

Automotive advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) applications increasingly demand radar modules with better capability and performance. These applications require sophisticated radar processing algorithms and powerful digital signal processors (DSPs) to run them. Because these embedded systems have limited power and cost budgets, the DSP’s instruction set architecture (ISA) needs to be eff... » read more

Achieving Functional Safety For Autonomous Vehicle SoC Designs
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 03 Dec, 2019 - Comments: 0

Autonomous vehicle systems will be expected to meet rigorous safety standards regarding many aspects of system design and performance. One set of these standards, known as functional safety, focuses on the safety and reliability of the electrical and electronic systems within the vehicle, and the system-on-chip (SoC) devices in particular. As the complexity of these devices grows, autonomous ve... » read more

Week In Review: IoT, Security, Autos
By SE Staff - 29 Nov, 2019 - Comments: 0

Internet of Things Amazon is expanding its IoT services. Alexa Voice Services will require less processing power on the device, moving from the 100MB of RAM and Arm Cortex A microprocessor to 1MB and an Arm Cortex-M. Amazon will do more of the processing in the cloud, enabling developers to add Alexa to smaller, single purpose devices. “It just opens up the what we call the real ambient inte... » read more
